RESTORATION TODAY
TUESDAY, JANUARY 14 2020
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR
Gen. 19, Job 22, Matt. 10:26-11:1.
TRUSTING GOD
“Trust In the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6.
Each of us has goals, dreams and ideas of what we want our future to look like. But what happens when those things don’t happen when we wish them to? It’s really easy to love God when things are going just the way we want. But what happens when things don’t work out the way we want? Does our faith, love, and trust in God decrease? Or does it stand strong, trusting that He makes all things beautiful in His own time?
Sometimes, God will contradict our expectations for our own benefit. I think we sometimes forget that God is all powerful, all knowing, and all capable. He isn’t just God sometimes, but always. As humans, we naturally feel let down when things don’t go the way we want. But when did God ever promise to fulfill all our desires according to our time? He didn’t.
God’s promises are fulfilled in His time, His way, and for His purpose. And until we can let go and allow God’s timing to reign number one in our lives, our relationship with Him is nothing more than shallow and transactional. It’s time to put your trust in the only one you can always count on. It’s time to let go and let God be God. Trust in Him.
ACTION POINT
?? Sing a song that reminds you to put your trust in God today.
SCRIPTURES
Proverbs 22:19; Job 13:15; Psalm 37:3, 5, 7.
PRAYER POINTS
1. Father, help me to always trust in Your timing in the name of Jesus;
2. Lord, give me the grace to always trust You like Abraham did in the name of Jesus;
3. Lord, make my life a testimony to encourage others to put their trust in You in the name of Jesus.
